Butler-Matthews Homestead

The Butler-Matthews Homestead is a historic farm complex near the hamlet of Tulip in rural Dallas County, Arkansas.

The farm complex was established as early as 1853 by Alexander Butler (1807-1881), and it is a rare fragment of Tulip's economic height between 1840 and 1860.

The house built by Butler was destroyed by fire in 1921, and it was replaced by the present I-house in 1922 by Ben Matthews.

It has a main block two stories high, with a two-story shed-roof porch spanning its front.
